How to get Megan Fox's Eyebrows

A reader, Brad Fallon asked what does Megan do to her eyebrows to make them so perfect...

Here's what you need:

Megan’s eyebrows are thick, which means the first thing you should do is lay off the tweezer and let your eyebrows grow out a bit. For those who have skimpy eyebrows, choose a product like Anastasia’s Brow Enhancing Serum ($35).

Megan also fills in her eyebrows with a color that matches with her hair color so make sure your eyebrows are only a shade or two different from your hair color. To darken your eyebrows to match a new hair color, all you need is an eyebrow powder or pencil in a darker shade. For help on lightening your eyebrows to match a lighter hair color, read these tips.

Lastly, Megan’s eyebrows are very defined and perfectly arched. To do this, you can use some help with some eyebrow stencils like Anastasia Classic Stencils ($20).

To use the stencils, following the steps below:

Step 1. Pick a stencil that matches your shape and place it on top of your eyebrow.

Step 2. Fill in the arch and end with an eyebrow powder or pencil. I personally prefer using powder for a more natural look and pencil for areas that require more precision like the end.

Step 3. Now that you have drawn on the perfect shape, pluck all stray hairs that fall outside of the shape you have created.

Step 4. Run the spoolie over your eyebrows to blend everything together and seal in the look with a dab of clear wax like MAC Brow Finisher.

Step 5. Highlight the brow bone with a shimmery color that complements your skin tone to finish the look.

Celebrity Brow artist's Tonya Crooks has worked with Megan for seven years, here's her secrets:

To achieve Megan’s brow look, Tonya trims and tweezes them into shape. She “doesn’t use wax as much with Megan as she does with other clients, as her skin is quite sensitive.” Tonya also shares:

Brows come in two basic shapes — an arc or an arch. Megan has a perfect arch. It’s what she was born with and it works perfectly for her face, as it’s her natural shape and brings a lot of drama to her face, since arches are more dramatic than arcs. Also, as Megan’s brow hairs are dark and her skin is light, there is a great high-low contrast that really gives her a strong look.

If someone wants a similar look they should keep in mind that Megan has a natural arch, but if you have a natural arc, you should go with that. You want to go with what is the most natural, appropriate look for your face. Make sure you keep the hairs long enough, and don’t remove too many hairs from either the front or the tail, as these can often dictate the shape of your brow. Make sure your arch is in the right place, and your brows are thick and clean. Megan often fills in sparse spots with a powder or pencil and always makes sure they’re brushed and kempt

HIGH BROW: MEGAN FOX

From elle.com: She has robust eyebrows but they’re anything but unruly. To achieve clean arches like the Transformer beauty’s, brush brows using a clear mascara or spritz hairspray on a toothbrush and comb through. Next, use a powder shadow to add shape.

How to get Megan Fox body

Megan's Workout Routine for Transformers:

Planks: Megan's workout relied heavily on planks. Hollywood Trainer, Craig Ballantyne has a video page which shows several variations (will give link to that page later). Planks are by far the best move for women to get sexy, flat abs like Megan.

A Brief Ab Circuit: After blitzing her abs with planks, she would then spend 15-20 minutes doing a circuit that involved knee ups, leg swings, and ball leg lifts. This is done in an interval like fashion...hard effort with just a little rest and back to a tough exercise. The idea is to do 3-4 different exercises back-to-back, rest 30-60 seconds, then do it again. Repeat for 15-20 minutes. It is harder than it sounds!

Old School Stationary Bike: She then took advantage of the increased heart rate by finishing off with 30 minutes of cycling. This was done with low intensity (I'll explain why intervals, followed by low intensity cardio is extremely effective at getting lean).

Interval Cardio is great at releasing fatty acids from fat cells (basically releasing fat into the bloodstream)...but is not good for using these fatty acids, once released.

Low Intensity Cardio is great for using fat for energy, but isn't good at releasing fat from the fat cells in the first place.

Megan Fox's Workout Program was a Hybrid Approach: She used body weight intervals to release the fat from the fat cells, followed by low intensity cardio to use these fatty acids for energy. The result was that Megan had a smokin' body for Transformers.

The actress spends 30 minutes of her time doing cardio exercises that flatten and tone her abs. She begins with some warm-up movements like butterfly crunch or front planks and then she gets down to business with knee-ups, leg swings and ball leg lifts. These are meant to work on the upper part of her body. She then mixes the cardio moves with Pilates or cycling for another 30 – 45 minutes to round out her workout.

As for her diet, Megan is careful about her daily meals and really focuses on eating a healthy breakfast so she has lots of energy and doesn’t overeat later on in the day. She loves eggs and usually has them every day. Megan is also a fan of almonds because she knows they contain filling protein and fiber. They’re also a good source of vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that will boost the effectiveness of her abs routine effectiveness. She’s a fan of lean protein sources and eats lots of veggies and fruits to keep her full.
